In Kirby's Adventure, and its remake, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, Paint Roller is the boss of Ice Cream Island.

Paint Roller is battled in a two-floored room. The upper floor is divided into two platforms, and has a gap that Paint Roller and Kirby can go through. There are four canvases, each located at one of the room's corners. In Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, the room is slightly larger and the scenery was altered, now sporting a rainbow.

During the battle, Paint Roller sprints to a canvas and paints an image that comes to life. The object begins to chase Kirby. Paint Roller moves on to the next canvas. Paint Roller randomly decides on a canvas and painting every time.

Without the assistance of a Copy Ability, Kirby must hit Paint Roller six times to defeat him. After Paint Roller is defeated, Kirby can obtain the second Star Rod piece.

“ This is our friend Paint Roller! You'll find he's pretty handy with the paintbrush! ”
— N.M.E. Sales Guy, in Dedede's Monsterpiece

Paint Roller appears as one of Night Mare Enterprises' monsters in the Kirby: Right Back at Ya! episode Dedede's Monsterpiece, where he vandalizes various famous paintings displayed in the Royal Acadddemy of Arts on King Dedede's orders to make them "more his style". After remembering that the paintings were supposed to be returned intact, King Dedede stops Paint Roller and has him paint a portrait of Dedede instead. However, this portrait ends up coming to life and antagonizing King Dedede and the other museum guests before Meta Knight shows up to destroy it with a burning torch.

As this is happening, Paint Roller starts painting a giant bomb threatening to blow everyone up. Kirby is sent to stop him, and ends up inhaling Paint Roller's paintbrush to gain the Paint Copy Ability. Using this ability, Kirby tries to chase Paint Roller down and avoids more of his attacks using painted objects. Eventually, Kirby paints a rocket and points it at Paint Roller, blowing the monster up along with the museum.
